I’d like to reduce the amount of oil bottles I carry. Right now I have 7 or so, and the bottles seem to also be quite heavy (can I get lighter ones?). What do I really need?

Suggests to carry Lavender, Peppermint and Tea Tree.

Suggests 5: The above 3 and also Citronella and Geranium. It suggests Citronella for anti-insect and Genanium for anti-fly and anti-tick.

Also lists Helichrysum and Chamomile.

Also lists lemongrass.

Also lists Frankincense, Eucalyptus, Orange and Cypress. And Myrrh.
In addition to the essential oils, it’s probably a really good idea to have a carrier oil. Some of the articles suggest it, although different ones are mentioned. Coconut, almond and avocado. I can probably choose one (my default is coconut) and carry a little bottle of it.
NEXT: Lists the uses of each oil, then prioritize the uses and try to pick what I really need the most.
Ideas for replacing with lightweight bottles:

The latter has that bigger bottle, I could use it for the carrier oil.
